I could tell it was a hoax right away. Where are the huge reel to reel tape recorders and banks of flashing lights? In the 50's everyone knew that computers consisted of huge reel to reel tape recorders and panels of flashing lights, that was how they operated. Just look at any movies made at the time that had a computer in it.

TWO steering wheels! So you can tell your computer where to go? I wonder what sort of drivers are included? Polite ones, I hope.

re: "Its not a steering wheel its the control device for the fan speed.... "

That's not the "control device" ...

It's the FAN !!!

They weren't very efficient in those days.

AND ...

You didn't want to be standing too close to it when it was operating.

;=]

Remember ... "With Poser, all things are possible, and poseable!"

Of course. You would obviously need two steering wheels. One to steer the 1's One to steer the 0's 8-P

and this would have been the slow model. The blazing models of that day were the ones with punch cards for the program.

This picture is NOT- repeat NOT - a hoax. To say that it is the hoax is a hoax. I should know, the man in the photo is my grandfather, Frank X. Fptargin, who has appeared in over 600 fake Photoshop images since his death in 1961.
